Introduction: This method statement defines the Repair procedure for RTR pipe 4diameter drain line on sea water and other systems. Procedure: Materials

Resin ( Epoxy resin ) Hardener ( IPD-Isophoronediamine) Boat tape ( fiber glass) Wooven Roving ( glass ) RP- 48 ( Adhesive )

Tools 3felt roller and or 3 bristle brush. 1 x 3 small air removal roller. 4 angle grinder m/c. 36grade grinding disc. Heating Blanket Flapper wheel sander Pipe wrap

Pipe cutting: Cut out the section of pipe which leaks/ damage make sure cut are square, Dry the pipe ends and cut new length of pipe to the same length ,Align the pipe joints in both ends circumferentially. Preparation for lamination on joints

The lamination length shall always be 120mm mark length and proceed end preparation.

Adhesive Fit layer
